330ml bottle, thanks to Kolschtrinker! Pours hazy gold, medium white head. Aroma is harsh, sake, yeast. Taste continues along similar lines, harsh, boozy metallic alcohol, sake, grain, yeast. Odd, and not a style I'd like to re-revisit.

Bottle. Orange color. Pineapple and a hint of flowers in the aroma. Flowery, peppery hops and some tropical fruit in the flavor. Well balanced and tasty beer. Maybe not a traditional Maibock, but likeable.
